Congrats, posting another political hit piece.

This is how it starts:


Why are you posting these? Why?

I can’t read entire article to get full context but losing that would suck.

Full article hopefully

But besides that first paragraph about using Way back to complete stats it’s not about the administration, like at all. So quit flopping and whining about everything.

I was posting about the Internet Archive Wayback Machine. It just so happened that an example of the usage of the service was given related to a political article you disagreed with (and one I don’t know if I read or care about reading).

The point actually was that publishers like USA today are now blocking the wayback machine from archiving and that the wayback machine is a useful tool that could go away because of the restrictions put on it by the private companies. If you read the whole article, you will see this is not a political article as the threat to the service isn’t political.

@rtcoog No idea why you can’t read the whole article, I had no problem and I certainly don’t subscribe to Wired.

You lost me…again at:
“It just so happened…” Seriously…

Try reading the entire article. Beyond the mention in the first two sentences, tell me where else it is political.

You get a certain number of articles like 3 after that it’s pay walled.

But he’s not going to read it. Just cry about it
